Queues to fill gasoline do not stop in Greater Valencia


After 12 noon on Wednesday, José Antonio de Simone completed two hours in line to fill up gasoline at the Llano Petrol service station in Valencia. The heat was raging and their outrage too, in his opinion there is no justification for citizens having to spend so much time “tanking” the tank of their vehicle.

“There is a lot of disorganization here, there is no control in the queue. Officials and cars that were not in line pass by and kick in, ”said de Simone as he counted the number of cars ahead of him.

The line at this gas station, which sells fuel at a subsidized price, stretched for about two blocks. The station manager indicated that they had fuel to attend to users, because this Tuesday afternoon a cistern with 23,400 liters of gasoline arrived.

In front of De Simone, on the other side of the road, in the Airport service station Yulifer Baloa was with her baby in her arms. “They passed me right now was because of the baby, because if I wasn’t still out there,” she said at 11:00 am, after more than six hours in a row.

In this I / O there were connectivity failures with the point of sale, so they only accepted bolivars or cash currencies as a payment method. The queue was approximately 50 cars.

Personnel in charge of the bomb indicated that in the afternoon of Tuesday they received a tank with 13,500 liters of gasoline, but they did not know when another would arrive.

In the E / S Los Samanes They have not received fuel since last Friday. At 12:30 noon, one of the people in charge of the pump, who preferred to keep his name in reserve, indicated that on Friday they received two tanks of 37 thousand liters each, “but that must end in about two hours.” At that hour, they were unsure whether a fuel tank would arrive.

José Rosales was one of the drivers in line at this station. He arrived at 9:00 a.m. and at 12:30 p.m. had five people in front of him. “In the last two weeks I calculate, the queuing time has increased. I already lost my work day today ”.
